Fingers and Legs, it’s what’s for dinner!

I’m not one to make chicken legs often but this one-dish meal will help you have dinner ready and on the table within the hour.

After making a garlic chicken leg recipe for Christmas dinner, I was inspired to create another Paleo chicken legs recipe. Plus, the pack of legs looked good so I couldn’t pass them up and they were also on sale, bazinga! :)

Directions

Pat chicken legs with a paper towel and transfer to an 11x7-inch glass baking dish. Season legs on both sides with sea salt.

Add sliced potatoes around and on top of legs. Season with sea salt.

Scatter sliced garlic around potatoes.

Drizzle fat over potatoes and chicken.

Lay bacon slices on top.

Transfer dish to the preheated oven. Bake for 20 minutes, toss the potatoes and rotate the try, bake for 30 more minutes.

Remove dish from the oven and let cool for 5 minutes before serving.

Enjoy! :)
